I'm just noticing that whenever I reboot Tvheadend won't recognize my tv adaptor immediately, I have to unplug the USB and plug it back in. Is this normal?

you have to enable the setting at the Tvh addon to wait for dvb adapter - I guess

If a new version of Libreelec is released do I need to reenter this command again?

If you connect to your box you have now at /storage/.config/modprobe.d/cx231xx.conf a file with some content. As long you don't delete this file it will work. It looks unlikely that this get "fixed" because it is not really a bug (more an misdesign of the hardware).

echo "options cx231xx transfer_mode=0" > /storage/.config/modprobe.d/cx231xx.conf

reboot

"should" work

Its nor really relevant, they added names to the device ids - the Tmax TAS 2101 is basically the chips that are build int at the card.

But better ask these things

I monitor that repo too, so if some technical questions appear I jump in

there is nothing strange at the log

I would open a new issue here Issues · tbsdtv/linux_media · GitHub

describe your problem (when did the error happens at what channels) and attach the log from here + the video incl the info

if some solution is posted i can build you an image

they should work - without dmesg | paste via ssh I can't say anything, maybe a missing command , maybe a missing firmware - can't say with out that log

Just to verify I enter into Libreelec through ssh and just enter "dmesg | paste"?

yes

Quote from next2non

I tested the file on my iPhone (VLC) and it looks exactly like the one I sent to you

okay that indicates most likely an driver error

Quote from next2non

Just to verify the version you sent is 8.0.1

yes i had no up to date builddir, its 8.0.2 with 8.0.1 version

btw so the testfile did not even show anything ?

could you enter dmesg | paste at the shell and post the link ?

The testfile includes the latest drivers, they should at least work like the old one.

maybe we misunderstand us

you should do a recording (without playback) at the rpi from the channel that makes problem, then copy the recorded file to some pc and try if the same errors are there too (this rules out that the RPi playback is the problem).

I created an Image with the latest tbs drivers that maybe (maybe not) fix the problem IF it is a driver problem.

LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-8.0.2-tbs-driver-test.img.gz

pls make a backup before

did you try to make a recording if it works there ?

I think this is driver problem, it shouldn't be such a great impact at the bandwidth.

Are you sure they send something that the RPi can actually handle (no 4k or HEVC ?)

Could you record a program and try to play it somewhere else ?

Maybe the RPi has problems to play it.

Quote from next2non

Do you think HD channels cannot be streamed to either TV or iPhone due to the capability of RPi2?

this should work, Continuity error are due HW problems (unlikely because SD is working), softwareproblems (kind of unlikely) - I would bet at some bandwidth limitation at RPi side. Try to disable the second tuner and only use 1 tuner if it works then - it is maybe because the bandwidth is over the limit. The RPi didn't have that much overall bandwith because USB + LAN is over one connection and that is rather limited.

You could try to record a HD channel if it works then (no other interaction wit the rpi in the meanwhile).

I was just recording 3 streams on 2 usb devices (2 streams on WinTV-DualHD and 1 on a Kworld-435Q) all running an RPi 3 and everything was smooth.

nice - so I add it to the 8.2 branch as soon 4.12 is finally there

could you pls ping me if the driver gets updated ?

we currently planing a 8.2 with kernel 4.12 - so this patch is needed if the card should work there

TBS5990

these card is known as broken - sadly nobody was able to give feedback to it

if you say me your platform i am able to build a new image what fix maybe this problem

Quote from edit4ever

The media tree needs to be updated before the patches can be run on the older kernels.

what version do you need 4.12 ?

Quote from JaKSLaP

how do i SSH?

Accessing LibreELEC - LibreELEC

maybe something wired at the driver - you never know
